PARKVILLE, Md. — A Powerball ticket worth $1 million was sold at a Parkville grocery store, marking Maryland’s first seven-figure Powerball win of the year.

The lucky ticket matched the first five numbers in the June 2 drawing — 1, 7, 44, 57 and 61 — but missed the Powerball number 21, securing the second-tier prize. The ticket was purchased at the Safeway located at 8858 Waltham Woods Road in Baltimore County.

The Safeway store receives a $2,500 bonus from the Maryland Lottery for selling the winning ticket.

The winner has 182 days from the drawing date to claim the prize and must do so through Lottery headquarters at 1800 Washington Blvd. in Baltimore. Appointments are required for in-person claims and must be scheduled in advance.

This win follows a $204.5 million Powerball jackpot claimed in California on May 31. With no jackpot winner in the June 2 drawing, the prize has now rolled to an estimated $30 million for the June 4 drawing.
